They said a picture is worth a thousand words, but my life is a novel. The world has only seen one picture, and determined who I am, yet they missed several chapters. A camera really can steal your soul, pawning it to strangers for the satisfaction of severe judgement.

Excerpt from the book I’ll never write

What did she expect of me, For her to unveil a goddess And for me not to worship her?

You deserve better. Just wait and learn for yourself.

But baby we're in love, burning out souls to keep the flame alive.

His fingers traced up my bare leg, as he mindlessly asked, “What are the odds?”, I looked at him, confused, “Odds of what?” he smiled, and with his eyes full of love stated, “That we would both end up in the perfect place, at the perfect time, and in a world full of billions of people, fall in love?” “One in a million.”

For him.

They won't let me watch any movies anymore, because they damage my ability to think realistically.

"There is no such thing as love at first sight", they say. "There is no moment where eyes cross for a split second and two people fall in love."

But how then, did it happen to me? Our eyes met and I knew. I was 100% sure it was him, the love of my life.

I felt it.

The way my heart started beating faster and how I got goosebumps. Isn't that how Cinderella felt, when she met her prince Charming? Or how Juliette knew Romeo was the one?

"He doesn't know you exist", they say. "You two haven't even met."

But we did, we actually did meet. I was in Paris, walking in les Jardins de Tuilleries and there he was, sat on a bench, reading. He looked up from his paper, saw me and BOOM... We fell in love.

"It was just a dream", they say. "An hallucination from the pills." But I can still hear him say my name

"Cause anxiety is like a bag of sand that tied up to your lungs. It weigh down your chest until it's too hard to breath—but you're still alive."

I asked for help

"I knew that when I said bye that I should've never went back but you didn't say bye and I felt bad because I couldn't leave you like you left me" 

 "how did I leave you when I was right here" 

"you didn't notice when I was screaming for help"

Existing

Isn't it dreadful when you wake up from a dream of a time you held so dear. All you can think is I want it back please. But as humans we are so damn powerless we look for joy in many things but ourselves. It's as though all time and space is so ridiculously painful and consuming our free will to see beauty in life. We sedate ourselves with books of people so strong and happy to take the thought that our lives are timed money bags waiting to go broke. We can only see the beauty in death because that existence is forever and your dream are finally peaceful.

I hope you see through me. See how much I care.

Never volunteer the key to your soul, because once given, forever open will it be.

excerpt from the book I’ll never write

She saw that he was a bad boy. She saw that he obliterated every heart he came in contact with. She saw that he saw everything as a game. She knew this, but when he looked at her with a light glossy glare and looked her over like a predator looking over the prey it had just caught, she knew she was in trouble.

excerpt from a book i'll never write

Save others. Save yourself. Love others. Love yourself.

"I didn't want to hurt you," he said, I felt my eyes water and my heart begin to break, "Then, why? Why are you leaving me?" I cried. His head fell, he cast his eyes to the ground and said, "I just don't love you anymore"

excerpt from a book i’ll never write // we’re over // @kaydavis167 on tumblr

from a book i’ll never write you know what im tired of making my poems all about you;you dont deserve to be in my thoughts like that no more,so im done writing bout made up memories that were only important to me because all you did was use me while i sat here trying to look bellow the surface of your skin;but ive observed something ,i know you better than you know yourself and i have learnt that you are no better than a pretty painting with no meaning behind it which is kinda sad ,so im gonna focus on myself and find the meaning behind this canvas and one day you can look at this masterpiece of mine and realize that i have more worth and significance than you ever will.so you can run along and find yourself someone who will appreciate your extrinsic exterior because once you fade away youre just gonna be what use to be someones simple brush strokes
